1). Use sunscreen in a pill to protect your skin.

Give your skin the sun protection it needs with sunscreen in a pill. Heliocare Sun Protection Pills supplement your topical sunscreen to help your skin protect itself from the aging effects of the sun.

2). Pick a water-resistant sunscreen for longer-lasting protection.

Not all sunscreens are created equal, so make sure you pick one that's water-resistant when you go swimming. One of our favorites is La Roche-Posay Anthelios 60 Body Milk Melt-In Sunscreen Milk because it offers up to 80 minutes of water resistance, so you can spend more time doing what you love and less time reapplying your SPF.

3). Boost your sunscreen with Vitamin C.

Vitamin C enhances the effects of your sunscreen and can brighten your complexion and boost collagen, too. We recommend VivierSkin C E Peptides, which combines vitamin C with vitamin E and peptides to give you dailydefense against signs of aging.

4). Treat melasma or dark spots with a skin lightening routine.

If you have melasma or dark spots, start a skin care regimen like the Obagi Nu-Derm Fx Starter System. This 7-step routine treats dark spots and other signs of aging by inhibiting melanin production and exfoliating to reveal brighter skin.

There are also products available to target other areas of stubborn hyperpigmentation. NIA24 Sun Damage Repair for Decolletage and Hands lightens dark spots with Pro-Niacin, licorice root, bearberry and evening primrose.

5). Get smooth legs for beach season.

If you're one of the 95% of women who suffer from cellulite, you can blur problem areas with PHYTOMER Body Blur Ultra-Smoothing Contouring Lotion. This silky lotion immediately smooths the appearance of dimpling and over time actually refines skin to reduce uneven tone and texture.
